hawg Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 I was in Ft. Pierce last week and was looking around Marine Connection Liquidators. They have a pretty good selection of Maverick gunnel carpet piled up in their warehouse. I didn't check everything they had because it was not easily accessible, but I did find carpet to fit the 18 HPXV and the 15 HPXV at least. They had the carpet in grey, dark green, dark blue and black. The black was plain, with no embroidery, the other colors had the embroidered tarpon/bonefish/permit, depending on the boat. The carpet is located on the south wall of the outer warehouse about halfway between the outer delivery doors and stacked up on a shelf situated about 5' above the floor. If you're interested, bring along the exact dimensions for your own boat, the carpets are in unmarked stacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pondfisher Posted June 6, 2019 Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 Ah, the perils of living on the west coast, lol. I desperately need new under gunnel carpet - or something. Mine is hanging off and I don't think I can fit anymore 5200 under there!😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mogan Master Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 I may have a set of new gunnel carpets for a 18 HPX still new in bag. I live in Ft Myers area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Matt Posted June 16, 2019 Report Share Posted June 16, 2019 I hated the gunnel carpet on my HPX -T,. In fact I think carpet has no place on any boat, but that's just my opinion. So I ripped the carpet out, had the gunnels gel-coated, then put SeaDek over that. I couldn't be happier. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polliwog Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 Hawg, I have a 15 HPXV, can you call them a have them send it? I'm assuming the carpet for the 18 and 15 are labeled as such. THX unfortunately I'm in Naples,so it would be great not to have to make the drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawg Posted June 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Polliwog, Marine Connection Liquidators consists of 2 large warehouses full of new and used marine gear. The gunnel carpet that I found was thrown in a heap on one of their storage racks. I doubt anyone working there knows exactly what that carpet is or where it's located in the warehouse. The carpets themselves have no markings which would indicate which model Maverick skiff they were made for. You will need the exact measurements of your existing carpet, including the cut-outs for the rod racks, in order to get the proper match (assuming they even have it). I suppose you could call them and ask them to go digging through the piles for you. The worst they can do is say no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polliwog Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 Thx Hawg, I will see if a friend in Ft Pierce knows the place and can check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
